Chelchele Yirgacheffe W

SEASONAL

Hello Yirgacheffe,

We don't quite remember last time we brought in a Yirgacheffe, just been too long ago.

Nowadays market is full of special fermentation and/or special processing coffee, and yet we are still in favourable of traditional processed coffees.

Chelchele Yirgacheffee is probably one that speak our mind.

Enjoy the classic profile of a Yirgacheffe coffee, where aroma of Assam Black tea rise alongside the sweetness of brown sugar. Acidity of Yuzu nicely sits well behind the sugary notes, lifting the tasting notes and adding complexity and depth.

Nestled in the Gedeb district of Yirgacheffe, the area’s unique microclimate, fertile red soils, and heirloom varieties come together to create a remarkable recipe for clarity and complexity in the cup.

The Chelchele station exemplifies both organization and sustainability. Each delivery of cherry is carefully tracked, with numbered drying beds and strict attention to hygiene.
